Having my bridal shower and actually have had several friends hop on the keto wagon for my wedding and actually requested keto options
I know this should be a no brainer but its gonna be catered.
Gonna be fairly large group. Any ideas? Thanks

What time of day is it? How formal?
A brunch shower would lend nicely to Keto foods that even the non-Keto folks would appreciate. A frittata for instance. Cream and berry cups if made properly. Of course bacon and Canadian bacon.
If later in the day, if go with salmon and a Keto friendly dill sauce or something similar. You could serve with asparagus. Just be sure to have real butter. It would be really nice to do in a mold with your new monogram in it. Or small individual rose pats of butter.

Is it a full meal or just nibbles?
Bacon wrapped shrimp with a schmear of cream cheese.
smoked salmon wrapped around asparagus or avocado.
little sausage and egg muffins.

We do that at every graduation. One we even dug a pit and cooked in the ground.

Oh, I have to tell a funny story. One of my coworkers was freaking out a little because she saw that our store was going to start carrying whole pigs. She thought the picture of the dead pig with the whole pig face was appalling.
I on the other hand thought it looked delicious.
Ok, maybe not a funny ha ha story. But her face when I was literally licking my lips was priceless.

most of the classic wedding dishes aren’t that bad on carbs - prime rib, salmon, chicken. Is there any way to just give people a choice about their side dishes and offer more ‘safe’ veggies? If it’s a catering company, they’re probably not going to be too excited about a lot of unique keto recipes.

You’re having 75-100 people to a shower?
How many are you having at the actual wedding?

So … will there be a buffet table with trays? Or sit down? Or just people circulating with yummies? I’m still not really envisioning this.

I do a few BBQs for showers and weddings a year, you can feed a few hundred good food for cheap. May just be a southern thing though.
